S Features Academic Accomplishment Competition is the foundation upon which the American ideology is based. This foundation begins in the world of extensive education. Outstanding school achievement is recognized by membership in the National Honor Society. Qualifica- tions for membership include a superior academic record, leadership, service, and Character. Potential members must have attended Norland for at least one year and participated in two other organizations. During the past year the National Honor Society was the coordinating chapter for the Southeast region. This position required the planning of a district meeting in the winter and one in the spring, at which the Chapter presided. New members were initiated in a special assembly, highlighted by a traditional candle-lighting ceremony. As their major project the National Honor Society presented scholastic banners to the homeroom of each grade level which attained the highest academic record during each six-weeks, grading period.

Griffin. Mu Alpha Theta Encourages Mathematical Development Fulfillment and high interest in mathematics char- acterize the membership of The High School and Junior College Mathematics Club, better known as Mu Alpha Theta. This honor organization, sponsored by Mr. Nor- man Richards requires a superior scholastic average as well as mastery of the subject with which it deals. The Norland Chapter was formed under the sponsorship of the Mathematical Association of America to satisfy the aptitude of students with an affinity for mathematics. Membership has grown sharply this year, reflecting in- creased emphasis on math and science in todays space age. Various club projects were designed to lend assistance to the student body. Members put their lecturing skill and knowledge to work by conducting a lengthy series of problem and study sessions to prepare interested students for the grueling National Math Test, which was administered in March. Members traveled to the University of Miami to attend open seminars, which were given by eminent guest lecturers, sponsored by Mu Alpha Thetas college counterpart, Pi Mu Epsilon.
